Nobody questioned former Marine Sgt. Dakota Meyer's judgment when he
defied orders and pounded into an enemy stronghold rescuing 13 fellow
Marines and 23 Afghan allies during the Battle of Ganjgal in 2009.

Nobody, except maybe Meyer himself, questioned his nomination for the
Medal of Honor (MoH) in November 2010 by the Commandant of the Marine
Corps.

But when Meyer protested the sale of advanced weapons to Pakistan,
BAE not only questioned his judgment, they made sure he was unemployable
in the defense industry.

Meyer's MoH is a huge honor. Only the third living recipient of the
award since the Vietnam War, and the first Marine in more than four
decades to wear the Medal, Meyer used its prestige, along with his
military experience, to get a job helping active duty soldiers when he
entered the civilian workforce
